    As a professional musician, every very few years you sit down and you write new songs and record an album. But then you have to go on tour to make money and engage your fanbase and…

    What is the evolutionary value of killing the host (potentially) before transmission can occur? I’d have thought the sweet spot is weak enough to minimise fatality/maximise acciden…

    Really well executed - well done. I was surprised and impressed with the output of my first search. One feature request: the ability to save common journeys. I take Uber(x) from ho…

    What is the extent of this outage? There isn't much info on Twitter or elsewhere. The Azure service status dashboard shows an issue impacting "Storage [South Central US]". Is that …

    Please come to San Francisco! I would jump on this immediately. I hate the idea of trying to find, screen and co-ordinate someone to clean my apartment regularly. I've tried TaskRa…

    Your site correctly identified my browser as Chrome for iPhone. OP's site detected it as Safari on OS/2. Kudos. Perhaps you could share some insights on why this might be.

    The extent to which having a four-year US degree equivalent will assist this young man in getting an H1-B visa cannot be exaggerated. It's possible without it, but, AFAIK, it then …

    I'm actually feeling physically uncomfortable trying to decipher their website. It's making me nervous and frustrated. I just want to know what the user experience is for making a …

    I used to attach video to bug reports occasionally. All the developers on my team hated it. They forced me to stop. They found it slower than scanning through text and didn't like …

    Yes, primarily because I wouldn't need multiple content subscription sources any more (HBO, Hulu, Netflix). Obviously I'm making some assumptions about how such a system would work…

    Same situation here. I'd love to know if this is ever coming to Apps accounts.

    ARGH! I just confirmed this. So disappointed. I've changed it now to be completely unique but I wouldn't be surprised if it's logged somewhere.

    I've used NewRelic quite a bit in the past, but only in production. I never really though of using it in dev. It would be good if there was a browser plugin or something to give im…

    Can anyone recommend a rails utility with similar functionality / UI ?

    Absolutely agree. It's quite funny, when you google something like "jQuery lightbox plugin", you will actually see (spammy) results like "30 Efficient jQuery Lightbox Plugins", as …

    First impressions are extremely positive. Is there a mailing list or anything yet? I would love to provide feedback and in return be able to follow the development progress.

    I absolutely understand. I'm not a marketing person either, but I have some experience in usability research, and I think you will get as much value from testing the homepage with …

    At the corporates I've worked at, this product would have been preemptively blocked anyway because it relies on an outbound ssh connection through the external firewall, which woul…

    It's not obvious by looking at the pagekite homepage what the product does. Lots of focus on the benefits, but as a developer, I'd rather just know what it does and how to use it I…

    Lol @ "they actually like talking to people more than pushing to github" I consider myself to fit in this category. I've always been a hobbyist programmer, but it is my damned penc…
